Jeffrey's Preschool Holiday Program. Just too cute for words.

Jeffrey the red nosed reindeer

Jeffrey had his first song recital at preschool. It was absolutely adorable. They made hand print calendars for us as gifts. The teacher had written us a beautiful thank you letter for letting us learn so much from our children. Each child has taught them something and she listed each one. Jeffrey's lesson was "If you see a chance...take it!" He is always keeping them on their toes. He is the oldest in the group and by far the most mischevious. He has pulled the fire alarm, flooded the hallway with the water fountain, and almost ran away across the parking lot while coming back from the playground. He is quite a handful. At least he has that cute face to make him loveable!

Big Boy Bed

This past week Jeffrey got a new big boy bed. Look at how peaceful he was the first night. Sleeping with all his buddies... Barney, Tad, Spectacle Bear and the Diego pillow. He was happy in his toddler bed but we are expecting guests this week and will be kicking Jeff into Alex's room so they can use his new bed. Since he is already the size of a 3 yr old we got him a full size bed so that it may last till he is 18!

Alex is excited to be hosting his brother for a sleepover in his room. We will see if anyone gets any sleep...we will need that Turkey and some WINE!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

How freaking funny is this?

Football

I have to say it was a pleasure to see at some really over rated teams lose this weekend. Although it was a really tough call to route for Penn State, a long time rival of Pitt. In this house we still even chant the Penn State Sucks cheer during the Pitt fight song after a touchdown. I suppose it was more fun to see all those bandwagoneer fans of the Irish crying in their beer.

I kinda feel sorry for Michgan (not a rival for us). But it was nice to see Oregon win. I have always liked the Ducks (back in the Joey Harrington days).

But HOT DAMN....it was sweeeeet justice watching those Hokies get stomped on AGAIN! The Guazzo Curse is alive and well since I found that picture again! I love that my kid can spot a VT logo from a half mile away and scream BOO HOKIES...now that the season has started he can start doing it again. We paid some respect for a few weeks after their tragedy and made him stop saying it. (Alex also says it at exit 119b on Interstate 81 - Blacksburg VA- the Hokie Nation)

And then the icing on the cake was watching Coach O'Brien (NC State) lose to his old school Boston College. We spent many hours screaming "Jack Ass" from the parents section of that school. Just a little bitter about his coaching of my brother in-law.

Oh well, we are off to Pittsburgh this coming weekend -- wish us luck -- we suck!
Another kinda Guazzo curse , everyone he picks loses.
